In HMDI, there are 4 macro symbols that help minimize CDR drift. These macro 
symbols are the typically case the majority of issues of EMI in HDMI signaling, 
due to their periodic nature, occurring exactly every horizontal and vertical 
sync times.

These symbols are basically 1010101011, and variants thereof, and are NOT 
randomized.
HDMI is NOT a fully DC balanced code, thought its similar to 8b10b, it only has 
an average DC balance per horizontal line.
